Salamancas is getting close to posting his maiden win following a second placing at Ipswich.
The three-year-old gelding by Sacred Falls gets Ryan Maloney in the saddle, and that helps his chances.

Gold Academy hasn’t been too far away from the mark in two career starts, including a fifth on debut at Wyong.

Punch Lane owns four wins from eight starts overall, and he could make a winning start to this campaign.

Dulcet comes off a win at Ipswich when showing an excellent turn-of-foot, which is always good to see.
